i kinda like the hood graphics. id say you don't really need anything on the side, but definitly ditch those tribals. wheels look good to! and fill in the nose. besides that looks great!

One of the ugliest? damn, have you seen the import crowd lately with their huge *** wings, fart cans for exhaust. Now those are some of the ugliest cars i have seen. This car is far from that. Lose the graphics and go with the hockey stripe and it will look bad ***.

ok, i apoligize its not the worst car, but its for sure one of the worst f-body cars ive ever seen. Its not riced out or anything its just plain ugly. I just see often people always post a pic of something, a car, a mod, something they did themselves, and everyone alwasy says "good job" or that looks good, JMO.

Underhood red, ..., NO, ...
Brake calipers, ..., No to the red, ..., maybe color-matched to the car, or simple gunmetal gray or charcoal, ...
